Alexander Zverev and Flavio Cobolli will take the court in Paris on Sunday in the Roland Garros final, in which one of them will win his first Grand Slam title. The final is being described as an unprecedented meeting between this pair in the concluding match of the French Open, and according to available information, Zverev enters it as the favorite. Le Figaro ↗
For Zverev, this is his fourth Grand Slam final of his career. The twenty-nine-year-old German tennis player could become the first German in 89 years to win the French Open. At the same time, he would fulfill a long-standing goal of winning his first title from one of the four majors. German media note that the last German winner of a Grand Slam tournament was Boris Becker in 1996. BBC News ↗
The final also has a personal dimension, as Zverev and Cobolli are reportedly friends. In the match, however, the biggest trophy of their careers so far will be at stake. Cobolli, like Zverev, could win his first Grand Slam title, which makes Sunday's clash a significant moment for both players. Welt ↗
Zverev has come close to Grand Slam success several times in the past but has failed to complete the final step. Sunday's final will therefore decide not only the new Roland Garros champion, but also whether the German tennis player breaks his streak of missed opportunities. The name Carlos Alcaraz does not appear in the provided materials with any new factual information regarding the final. Der Standard ↗
